What people say

Arepa Days is a Colombian restaurant and cafe located on Preston Street in Melbourne that offers an authentic taste of Northern South America. The star of the menu is their arepas, which are made from scratch using Australian corn to create the dough, making them naturally gluten-free with no additives or preservatives. The freshness of the arepas is unparalleled compared to those made with imported corn flour or frozen imports.

The chargrilled fillings include chorizo, pollo, morcilla or fresco cheese, all served with guacamole, picadillo (salsa), coriander and mozzarella cheese. Each bite of Arepa Days' arepas will transport you to the streets of Colombia where you'll feel like dancing a Salsa or Cumbia.

The cafe's South American vibe adds to the overall experience, making it a must-visit for anyone looking for an authentic taste of Colombian cuisine. Whether you're a fan of Latin American food or just looking for something new to try, Arepa Days is definitely worth checking out.
